Overzicht
This charming thatched guesthouse is situated 200m from the beach in the quaint West Coast fishing village of Paternoster, an easy 90 minute drive from Cape Town. Uninterrupted views of the ocean can be enjoyed from two of the intimate guest suites and from the superbly positioned dining area. The third suite is on the ground floor and does NOT have a view of the sea. Relax and unwind in the private spacious airy rooms and enjoy a leisurely scrumptious breakfast which includes but not limited to homemade bread, cakes and scones. Sit on your private balcony, sip some locally produced wine or beer and soak in the picture-perfect sunsets. We provide safe parking in our private cul-de-sac.
Paternoster has become such a popular holiday preference not only for Capetonians but also for many international tourists. The combination of quirky artsy shops, amazing restaurants, white washed cottages and beautiful beaches make for an amazing little getaway! Time and time again I hear our guests arrive and say “ this place is absolutely stunning” and when they leave “if only I had one more day!”
